My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Elsie is big and beautiful, she has gorgeous brindle stripes on bright white, she is a solid girl, but fairly grounded for a growing pup. Initially shy, that was short lived as she got paired with a couple outgoing little pups who enticed her out of her shell and into play mode!
Elsie wants to please, she is fairly gentle and ready to learn. She wants love and to please you, and this is the time to provide consistency, repetition, and rewards based training, as she is a big growing girl, so best to jump on the training - we are starting, and she will excel in the right hands and with a good outlet for her moderate energy and enthusiasm for life! A lovely cuddly girl.

More about this rescue

The Milo Foundation is an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill organization providing an alternative for homeless pets throughout California, through education, adoption services, and providing sanctuary for animals until permanent homes can be found.

Founded in August of 1994, The Milo Foundation Sanctuary is located on two hundred and eighty-three acres in Mendocino County - offering lots of room for the animals to run and play. The Milo Sanctuary animals typically (but not exclusively) are harder to adopt animals and those needing more rural type homes, such as dogs with social or behavioural challenges, feral cats, horses and other farm animals. The Milo Point Richmond Adoption Center is where the majority of our new rescue intake takes place, typically friendly, adoptable cats and dogs, puppies and kittens rescued from shelters where they were facing euthanasia. The Sanctuary is where highly active or reactive dogs can go and have plenty of space, other canine companions (if they are dog friendly) and live in a stress free environment until such time as the right adoption match can be found.

The Milo Sanctuary is what enables Milo to be a No-Kill organization. Milo brings dogs back and forth from the Adoption Center (MPR) to the Sanctuary to give dogs a break from the stresses of the kennel environment and back to MPR later to try again at being adopted. Potential adopters also do come up to the Sanctuary to adopt, by appointment.
